Prespawn Walleyes on the CT River
Message:
I went out for a few hours on the river. Two trees and a snow bank have been blocking my town's ramp this winter. I cut up the trees with my Stihl chainsaw and shoveled out the snow bank.

Water temp was 35 degrees. I hit a few Walleye holes and found one just jammed with 'eyes. There were so many I could feel the lures bumping into them, yet nothing showed on the sonar. I ended up catching 24, and lost at least twice that number. Walleyes were in 30-40' and all hit jigs and blade baits. One of the males was ready to spawn, leaking milt. Here are some of them. Nobody wanted to go fishing today, so I had to take my own pictures.

Sweet! TurtleKiss (aka Kira) and I checked out the stretches of the Connecticut River from the Baldwin Bridge to Hamburg Cove and from the Bissell Bridge to the mouth of the Farmington River. We marked only one fish with the finder in Hamburg Cove. ONE! :? Although we marked perhaps a dozen widely scattered fish with the finder near the mouth of the Farmington and downriver from a submerged wall in the Connecticut, we never saw more than one at a time and the ones we saw were totally disinterested in what we were throwing.
